Thirty years earlier the distinguished Democrat New York senator and former Harvard professor Patrick Moynihan, who was not a pro-life warrior, compared partial birth abortion to infanticide. One can only imagine Abigail Adams cringing at the thought of her “remember the ladies” request to John being invoked by twenty-first century feminists to cheer unrestricted abortion as health care and to invoke inadequate medical treatment plus postpartum psychosis as a legal excuse for a mom carefully planning and carrying out the extermination of her three children over the span of eighteen minutes.

It at least makes sense that the same state that elected a governor who supports unrestricted abortion also devised an insanity defense putting the burden of proof on the prosecution rather than the defense. In addition, Bay State prosecutors must prove not only that defendants know the difference between right and wrong but also that they can control their actions.
